'Pakistan thought they had advantage but ...': Shashi Tharoor on closed-door UNSC meet called by Islamabad
Tuesday, 6 May 2025 Shashi Tharoor stated that Pakistan faced tough questions regarding terrorism and Lashkar-e-Taiba at a recent UNSC closed-door meeting following the Pahalgam attack. Despite Pakistan's attempt to raise the issue, member countries focused on LeT's role and the threat of terrorism. Tharoor anticipates a general call for peace but no specific resolutions due to potential vetoes from China.
The United Nations Security Council has strongly condemned Pakistan over the deadly Pahalgam terror attack that killed 25 tourists, allegedly orchestrated by Lashkar-e-Taiba. In a tense closed-door session, UNSC members criticized Islamabad’s missile tests, nuclear rhetoric, and attempts to...

Hamas welcomed the BRICS summit statement demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and full Israeli withdrawal. The BRICS communiqué accused Israel of using starvation as a weapon of war and condemned its ongoing military siege. With over 57,400 Palestinians killed, BRICS backed Palestinian statehood with East Jerusalem as its capital. Hamas urged BRICS nations-including China, Russia, and South Africa-to intensify global pressure on Israel’s blockade and occupation. The group also reaffirmed support for UNRWA and denounced aid politicization in Gaza.

The geopolitical stage is set for a major confrontation as the BRICS alliance prepares for its 2025 summit in Brazil. The bloc, which will include ten member nations, is openly challenging the long-standing economic hegemony of the United States. With members like China, Russia, and Brazil leading the charge, BRICS now represents a formidable force, accounting for 45% of the global population and 35% of the world's GDP. The group's primary objective is to reduce its dependency on the U.S. dollar by promoting trade in local currencies and developing alternative financial systems.
The tension has escalated dramatically following a direct threat from former U.S. President Donald Trump. He warned that any nation aligning with BRICS' anti-dollar policies would face severe consequences, including a blanket 10% tariff with "no exceptions." This aggressive stance is a clear signal that the U.S. views the rise of BRICS as a direct threat to its ability to impose sanctions and control global financial networks like SWIFT.
In response to the mounting criticism and Trump's threats, China's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Mao Ning, has publicly pushed back. While rejecting claims that BRICS is an "anti-American" coalition, she firmly stated that the mechanism is not targeted at any single country. However, she also reiterated China's long-standing opposition to "tariff wars and trade wars," sending a clear message to Washington. This high-stakes diplomatic battle between the established G7 powers and the rising BRICS alliance could reshape the future of the global economy.

India-Pak War BIG REVEAL: In May 2025, as India-Pakistan clashed, one country watched from the sidelines— and probably profited too : China.
Beijing armed Pakistan with J-10C jets, PL-15 missiles, and HQ-9 defense systems — while feeding Islamabad the real-time intelligence. The result? A live battlefield to test Chinese weapons against India — without risking a single Chinese soldier.
This is China’s "Borrowed Knife" doctrine in action — k!ll your enemy using someone else’s hands.

Pakistan has denied claims that it would launch a nuclear strike on Israel if Iran were attacked. Defence Minister Khawaja Asif clarified that Pakistan’s nuclear capability is strictly for national defense—not for hegemonic agendas. This comes after Iranian official Mohsen Rezaei claimed Islamabad had promised nuclear retaliation on Iran’s behalf. While Pakistan maintains strategic ties with Iran and urges Muslim unity against Israel, it has clearly distanced itself from any nuclear involvement, warning the West of Israel’s unchecked nuclear might.

NATO is stepping up its military backing of Ukraine as the Netherlands ships out its final batch of F-16 fighter jets — but the skies aren't safe. Ukraine has already confirmed the loss of three U.S.-made F-16s in combat. Despite mounting risks, Western nations continue their push to modernize Ukraine’s air force as part of the international fighter jet coalition. Denmark, Belgium, Norway, and the Netherlands are now actively arming Kyiv while transitioning to the F-35s themselves. Is NATO’s bet on air superiority paying off — or are these jets flying straight into danger?

Razaullah Nizamani, a key Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander and mastermind behind several deadly attacks, including the infamous 2006 RSS headquarters assault, has been killed by unidentified attackers in Pakistan. His death marks a significant blow to the terrorist organization. Nizamani, also known as Abu Saifullah Khalid, played a critical role in planning and executing high-profile operations targeting Indian interests, and was deeply involved in LeT's recruitment and logistical activities across the Indo-Nepal border. His demise comes as a major setback for the terror group, which faces a loss of one of its most strategic operatives. This video delves into the life and impact of Nizamani, his contributions to terrorism, and what his death means for the future of Lashkar-e-Taiba.
